Abstract

Multidrug resistance tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a form of tuberculosis bacterial resistance to at least two first-line anti-TB treatments, isoniazid and rifampicin, the two most effective TB medications. Treatment of Drug Resistant TB is set to be part of the national TB Control program. MDR-TB cases continue to rise. Clinical management of MDR-TB is more complicated than sensitive TB because it uses line I and line II anti-TB drugs, causing tolerance problems and side effects. Tuberculosis Multidrug Resistance (MDR TB) is a tuberculosis (TB) disease that has experienced resistance to isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin as well as one or more anti-tuberculosis drugs (OAT). One of the things that affect the decline in body power is the influence of self-care patterns where it is influenced by internal and external factors. The purpose of this article is to identify internal and external factors that influence self-care patterns in MDR-TB clients. A concept analysis approach is used to analyze the concept of self-care. The four definitions of self-care are diet, regular physical exercise, regular medication monitoring, and self-care to prevent complications from poor self-care. The antecedent of self-care of MDR-TB patients has two factors, namely internal and external. Internal factors include; age, gender, knowledge, and attitude. External factors include; education, economic level, family support, and the role of health workers. The consequences of self-care can increase the success of recovery and improve quality of life. The conclusion of this concept is to increase nurses’ knowledge about self-care in MDR-TB patients who carry out treatment so that it is expected to develop evidence-based nursing.
